Red Tail Hawk at the Lufkin Zoo. Beautiful Bird of prey and nice pose. I had to wait some time but I think the wait was worth the shot. Rick would tell me to get all of the animal but I thought it was a great bird and worth posting what I had :)

209 of 365 - Lillie and Lance
These adorable little kids are 2 of Cindy's cousin's children. I remember holding Lillie when she was just a new baby and now she is full of it, running around, screaming, raising Cain and exploring this world with all the innocence allowable. Her cousin Lance seems to be very good with her and was holding her up to get her photo through the German cutout in Old World in HB yesterday. Some day I will get a photo shoot with Lille and/or Lance and will have them added to my portfolio.

San Francisco based artist Gregory Ito produces work that is both thought provoking and highly conceptual. His latest show entitled "Point of Vision" (which premiered at Gallery Hijinks in early August) highlights the artist's drive to create more than just pretty pieces of art. The show delves into concepts of time, how we perceive it, and intrinsically touches upon what it's like to be human.

Monticello was the primary plantation of Thomas Jefferson, a Founding Father, author of the Declaration of Independence, and the third president of the United States. Jefferson began designing Monticello after inheriting land from his father at the age of 14, but its construction date is typically identified as 1772. Located in Albemarle County just outside Charlottesville in the Piedmont region, the plantation was originally 5,000 acres, with Jefferson using the forced labor of slaves for extensive cultivation of tobacco and mixed crops (later shifting from tobacco cultivation to wheat in response to changing markets). Due to its architectural and historic significance, the property was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1960. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. In 1987, Monticello and the nearby University of Virginia, also designed by Jefferson, were jointly designated as a single UNESCO World Heritage Site. The United States nickel has featured a depiction of Monticello on its reverse since 1938 (except for 2004-05).
Jefferson designed the main house using neoclassical design principles pioneered by Italian Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio and reworking the design through much of his presidency to include design elements popular in late 18th-century Europe and integrating numerous ideas of his own. Situated on the summit of an 850 foot-high peak in the Southwest Mountains south of the Rivanna Gap, the name Monticello derives from Italian meaning "little mountain." Along a prominent lane adjacent to the house, Mulberry Row, the plantation came to include numerous outbuildings for specialized functions, e.g., a nailery; quarters for slaves who worked in the home; gardens for flowers, produce, and Jefferson's experiments in plant breeding—along with tobacco fields and mixed crops. Cabins for slaves who worked in the fields were farther from the mansion.
At Jefferson's direction, he was buried on the grounds, in an area now designated as the Monticello Cemetery. The cemetery is owned by the Monticello Association, a society of his descendants through Martha Wayles Skelton Jefferson. After Jefferson's death, his daughter Martha Jefferson Randolph, apart from the small family graveyard, sold Monticello for $7,500. In 1834, it was bought by Uriah P. Levy, a commodore in the U.S. Navy, for $2,500, who admired Jefferson and spent his own money to preserve the property. His nephew Jefferson Monroe Levy took over the property in 1879; he also invested considerable money to restore and preserve it. In 1923, Monroe Levy sold it for $500,000 to the Thomas Jefferson Foundation (TJF), which operates it as a house museum and educational institution.
